A Conversation with a Caregiver who is using The Teaching of Talking

Mark A. Ittleman
The Teaching of Talking
READER: Thank you again for your book its making a difference for us both.He is not as depressed now.. God Bless You

AUTHOR: Thank you so much for keeping me in the loop. Let me know if I can be of any help to you in clarifying things! It's so great to follow your progress with your husband. Are you using imbedded questions, Please let me know!

READER: yes we are using Imbedded questions, and its working great. Just today i asked him what our sons name was (DG is our sons Nick Name) and he said it but it wasn't very clear but was understandable. He is progressing slowly but it's working when others said it would never happen. Thanks to your book and your Shared knowledge of a PT. I'm getting more and more excited everyday.. Thank You Mark...

AUTHOR: Great. Often when speech is not clear it may be helpful for you to either say the word louder or draw it out; prolong the word and say it very slowly emphasizing each syllable.

READER: thanks i will keep that in mind, tomorrow as we work together. He is so excited that he is able to get words out clearly. His ST didn't work with him like i'm working with him now. Your book has been more helpful than the ST was. Again I Thank You
